The first aim of this report was to investigate the fluctuation of average step counts with season and the days of the week using data obtained from Yokohama Walking Point Project in which approximately 120 thousand citizens (as of June, 2014) participate. We found that average step counts were high on Friday and in November and May regardless of age and sex. <br>The second aim was to investigate, in consideration of individual attributes, the association between average step counts of each neighborhood and environmental factors. We found that environmental factors such as population density, distance of the nearest station and average elevation of the neighborhoods affected average step counts of the residents.
